MSI Enthusiastic Gaming M5 Intel Z170A LGA 1151 Card: MSI GTX 1070 any ideas ? Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: abaiti on November 08, 2017, 06:01:53 PM Maybe you need reboot your windows or intall ubunty?
Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: mischief on November 08, 2017, 06:26:21 PM Make sure you are providing enough power to all of those.
Same thing happend to me so Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: infowire on November 08, 2017, 07:30:30 PM Maybe you need reboot your windows or intall ubunty? I will try ubuntu tomorrow. I hear its a pain in the ass tho. Make sure you are providing enough power to all of those. Same thing happend to me so Did you figure it out ? Was it just power ? I mean my afterburner don't see it only 8 of out 9. Windows see 9, Nvidia control panel see 9.... GPU-Z froze like claymores. Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: infested999 on November 08, 2017, 09:28:52 PM you can't run more than 8 with windows. I am using 16 on linux. You can use by windows 8 amd+8nvidia but not more than 8 for the same driver

Increase the ram, increase the PSU W and switch over to Linux. Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: Johny101010 on November 08, 2017, 10:34:31 PM Try simple mining OS. Very easy to use and Linux based do it scales much better than Windows.

Freezes with claymore and newest afterburner only sees 8. Use Windows 10 Fall Creators update. will get more than 8 GPUs working.MSI Enthusiastic Gaming M5 Intel Z170A LGA 1151 Card: MSI GTX 1070 any ideas ? Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: Undefined31415 on November 09, 2017, 08:12:19 AM As others have suggested, try your luck with your preferred Linux distribution.
Graphics drivers for Windows 10 have a cap at 8 GPUs (each AMD, and Nvidia), excluding some "mining-specific" cards. Linux should be able to handle more, and since you didn't mention having any AMD GPUs, it shouldn't be too much of a pain. (Running GPUs with different manufacturers tends to be rather difficult on Linux.) Title: Re: Can't get past 8 GPU's ETH Post by: infowire on November 09, 2017, 03:12:57 PM I am going to try the "[OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining v0019-1.4". Just waiting on my flash drive coming in today. Has anyone used this before ?
Windows 10 can support more, http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/13-gpu-mining-rig/ .... Maybe the motherboard cant. CPU can do 16 lanes. |
